Power vs. Energy
POWER = RATE of energy consumption = energy per unit time
Units of watts (1 W = 1 Joule/sec) or kilowatts (1 kW = 1 kJ / sec)
What is the U.S. per capita power consumption? (a) 100 W (one 100 W bulb ALWAYS on)
(b) 10 kW (ten 1 kW hair dryers ALWAYS on)
ENERGY = power × time
Units of kilowatt-hours (kWh) or kilojoules (kJ)
1 kWh = 3,600 kJ (see notes section on PPT slide for calculation)

Types of Energy
Kinetic (KE) = energy of motion of objects
Potential (PE) = energy of position
Thermal = energy of motion of atoms or molecules
Electrical = energy of current flowing in a circuit
Chemical = energy of atomic and molecular bonds
Nuclear = energy from breaking or joining nuclei
p. 14
